Anti-Web HTTPD is a freely available, open source web server designed for use on the Linux platform. It is maintained by Doug Hoyte. Under some circumstances, it may be possible to take advantage of a heap overflow in awhttpd. awhttpd does not properly handle the loading of script code. As a result, a local user with access to load scripts could take advantage of this problem to execute arbitrary code. This could result in the user gaining the same privilege as the HTTPD process (by default, UID/GID 32767)..
